Thanks for the learnin, Teach.

So, we should quote only what is relevant, and shouldn't "top-post" especially without deleting the long articles that trail it.  Ok. That all makes sense.  I like that you top posted your reply though. 

It would be even better then, if I could have my replies with the < character insted of the colored pipes?  Does anyone know how to do that on the iOS or Android? Not sure if it is an iOption, though I know how to do it on a desktop mail program.
